Last year, two members of the Wake Forest men’s tennis team – Noah Rubin and Jon Ho – competed in the Winston-Salem Open. Rubin earned a wild card selection into the main draw and took on American Bradley Klahn in the first round. Rubin put up a tough battle against Klahn but ultimately fell 6-2, 0-6, 7-6 (5). Ho, a wild card selection into the qualifying rounds, topped Quinton Vega in the first round before falling to Jason Jung in the second round. In the 2013 tournament, the Deacs’ Romain Bogaerts earned a wild card draw into the tournament’s main draw but dropped his first-round match to Yen-Hsun Lu, who made a run to the tournament’s quarterfinals before falling to semifinalist Alexandr Dolgopolov.
